Listen: Hooded Fang – “Graves”

Happy to burn through an enormously catchy garage rock melody in under three minutes (how long should it take?), Toronto’s Hooded Fang definitely know where their strengths lay. You can practically see the band throwing themselves around the studio colliding with any and everything not nailed down. And some that are. Equal parts The Ramones and The Pixies, the band walks a fine line between the self-serious and the self-effacing nature of their influences. They’ve recently dropped the first single “Graves” from their debut album Gravez due May 28th via Full Time Hobby. Check out the frenetic kineticism of the track below.
